Keeping memories of loved ones alive

Lancashire Evening Post

October 22, 2025

After someone we love has passed away most of us try to find a way of keeping their memory alive.

This can vary from planting a tree to naming a star. Here are a few of the options that you may want to consider.

IN THE STARS

For some, naming a star after the loved one they have lost seems a fitting memorial. There are many star naming websites for you to choose from on the internet.

Most of these specialist websites give you the choice of naming a single star or a star in a constellation.

Once you have named your star, you will usually receive a certificate, star chart and coordinates to help you find it in the night's sky.

BEREAVEMENT BOX

Creating a memorial keepsake box is a comforting option for many.
